2/10
Had potential, but replaced all the promising bits with boobs.

Warning: Spoilers
Do you like tits? If you're watching this anime, let's hope so, because that seems to be the main focus here. Sure, there are a lot of zombies, but you only see them in between bouncing breasts and underwear flashing out from under a skirt that's too short for any kind of modesty. Like logic? It appears occasionally, but is forgotten just as fast as it is brought up.

It's not all bad, though. Well, most of it is, but I have to give credit where credit is due. The dark, urban landscape of Tokyo proves to be a most haunting area for a zombie apocalypse to take place, and the animation is nothing short of wonderful. Blood splatters on walls, boobs bounce, cars screech around corners sending dust and pebbles across the street, tits jiggle, skirts fly up, boobs get groped... and these things happen a lot. Except the cars. By the way, if you haven't figured out by now, kids shouldn't be watching this.

So, what is wrong with this series? Well, let me ask you this: are you offended when girls are portrayed as nothing short of sex objects, whose sole purpose is to follow the men and never really do anything? Do you hate slimy characters who nobody in their right mind would trust for even an instant yet inexplicably do? Do you sometimes find yourself thinking? If you answered yes to any of these questions, this anime is not for you. None of the girls wear bras, their tits defy gravity, all the girls have the exact same personality except for one trait that separates them (one claims to be smart yet just states the obvious, one is a whiny annoying bitch, one kills things with swords, and one has BIG ASS TITTIES. Like, super huge. She literally uses them as pillows. Unfortunately, her tits seem to sap her intellect because I've never seen a more stupid character in any anime. EVER.)

One big flaw this series has is bringing up topics or observations that are excellent points but NEVER explained/elaborated/acted on. For example: the zombies can only hear. They cannot see, they don't seem to feel (they keep walking into objects until they hear something else), and they only react to noises. Does anybody exploit this? Hell no! As soon as zombies appear everybody who knows this fact starts shouting. It's only ever used when the author wants them to seem clever, and even then it just seems like common sense. At one point they try to distract the zombies by banging on a pipe. When the zombies ignore them, they ask 'why aren't they coming?'. Excellent question! Why aren't they?....... still waiting on that response...... aaaaaany day now.... ... ... Okay, well I'm sure they had their reasons. This isn't the only scene like this though. They have plenty but for space reasons I can't get into them all, though my favorite is when zombies somehow find them and while trying to figure out how they found them they decry 'the leaves! THEY HEARD LEAVES IN TREES RUSTLING!'. I guess their vegan zombies or something.

I was annoyed at this series early on, but it only took one episode for me to want to turn this off out of sheer rage. Why didn't I? I don't know, maybe i'm a masochist or something. The episode goes like this: after finding a safe house, the girls get naked, take a bath, GROPE AND FONDLE EACH OTHER, get drunk, and try to have sex with the main character (totally ignoring the only character who actually DOES something in this series and is also a male). What do the guys do? Talk about guns, how to survive the zombie apocalypse, discuss their next move... you know, all the stupid things nobody cares about, right? Now back to the tits. Oh look, now a girl is fingering herself! CLASSY!

Did I mention that out of the 7 characters there are only two guys? One of them is a fun character, who is only good at one thing: guns! He's fat, nerdy, and thoroughly likable. The other character is a total Mary Sue. For those that don't know, a 'Mary Sue' is a character mostly reserved to fanfics who is perfect in EVERY WAY, EVERYBODY likes, and is stronger than everybody else. All the girls want him, he's less interesting than a can of tomatoes (at least there's something INSIDE the can) and he just frustrates me. But thank God for titties, am I right?

If this was a comedy show these might fit, but everything else about the series takes it incredibly seriously while also focusing solely on boob and panty shots. These moments just don't fit in, and the girls often become frustrating to listen to. I find myself skipping over segments with the blond woman because I just can't stand her anymore. But if you force someone else to watch it with you, turn panty/boob shots into a drinking game, and assume the show is a comedy, you could actually have a lot of fun watching it.

Just remember: DO NOT WATCH WHILE SOBER.
